“Since early childhood art has been an evolutionary unfolding for Helen F. Howerton. Art images blend expressive brush work using the tradition of the Analogous Color palette and Munsell color theory. Using acrylic or oil paint, she uses a traditional/representational style or an “Abstract Realism” style. This technique on acid free illustration board or canvas combines the use of an abstract background while painting realistic subjects producing the look of a watercolor. My goal as an artist is to capture in paint the beauty in the world of nature. May the viewer experience the appreciation and beauty that has inspired the art.”
